George Groves to Hearn: "I'm not your whore"

[Eastcoast]

George leaves Eddie and Eddie's still trying to make money off George. Hearn wishes DeGale was half as marketable as Groves.

[Heavyfist]

Hearn can be a real slimeball at times. Likes to goad and control other fighters into doing what he wants. Tried to do it with Khan, Frampton and now Groves.

I agree, Hearn is known to be a huge piece of garbage. There are rumors of him getting in trouble with under age rent boys. Everyone in the business says he is a devil.

Disgraceful that he is abusing his own fighter, Groves like this. Why the f should Groves give 50/50? That is insane.

i belong to carl froch!

But Groves is right. He should get the majority of the money, as he is not the one who needs the fight, Degale is.

Groves won the first fight, and is the one who has had significant fights since, while Degale stalled and is now looking to breakout.

Why wouldn't Groves hold out for a bigger share? Anyone in his position would.

Groves is clearly the bigger name right now and imo he does deserve a little bit extra.

Hearn is just trying to get have his fighter's best interest which is fair enough.

Groves isn't his own fighter though.

groves beat degale already + has been in the bigger fights so he deserves the lion share. if degale wants to avenge his loss then step up and take a smaller cut

Groves isn't his own fighter though.

Still, it's very unprofessional for a promoter to resort to school boy taunts and insults.

You don't see Arum or Haymon saying dumb stuff like this on twitter. They might say a fighter is avoiding, but even then they are very diplomatic.

Hearn is supposed to do his best to make the fight happen, not act like an imbecile. Groves is likely to just tell Hearn to piss off. Hard to take Hearn seriously at all, he's always had this problem with being unable to control himself.

Nah, Eddie is on the #earnwithhearn train.

And so is degale.

[Dirk Diggler UK]

Groves got a 1 point gift decision in the first fight and all he's done since is make a name off Carl Froch's back whilst getting knocked out.

He has looked like utter dog **** in his last two fights. He should take the DeGale fight because it's the last payday he's going to get. Why go to America to get KOed for no money rather than get paid well to get KOed by DeGale in the UK. Is it a pride thing? Ugly Kid is clearly happy nicking a decision in the first fight, he's never wanted any more of DeGale.

Who gives a flyin ***? That's why their shows are all the same boring crap. None of them are on twitter by the way, does Bob even know what it is?

I love Hearn getting into it with Groves. They clearly don't like each other.
